Chapter 1

Gym was finally over and the weekend just begun. I was walking to my truck relieved that the end of my senior year was only a week away. Finally I would be able to be with Edward and live with him forever...after he turned me into a vampire. I opened my door and hopped in closing the door behind me and started the truck. The engine roared to life and I felt like I was being watched. I looked around and saw Mike peering at me through my window. I rolled it down half way to talk to him.

"Hey Bella," he said with worry in his voice.

"Hey Mike, what's wrong? You sound worried about something."

"It's nothing, but I want to show you something. Will you come with me?" He looked around and I nodded my head yes. I stopped the truck and walked with him to around the Gym building where there was a dumpster. He pulled the big can out from the wall about two feet and pointed in the crack. I walked around and stood next to him and saw the most pathetic thing I have ever seen. There was a small orange tabby kitten that's bones were sticking out from every point possible on its body.

"That poor thing!" I said bending down on my knees.

"I know. I found it after lunch. I didn't know what to do with it, but I couldn't let it stay here and die. I thought of you since you are the only person I know that doesn't have a pet," Mike said. I looked at him then back at the kitten. Could I take on this responsibility? What would Edward think if I brought a kitten home? Questions started to flood my mind.

"I guess I can try, it won't hurt," I said to Mike and Mike smiled.

"That would be great, thank you Bella." We both looked back at the cat wondering how to get her out. I made clucking noises and rubbed my pointer finger and thumb together. The cat looked over at me with wide, bronze eyes. The kitten took one step towards me then stopped and looked up at Mike. The kitten hissed and ran under the garbage dump after Mike took a step towards me. I motioned him to step back aware that the cat might be afraid of him. He stepped back and I tried again.

The kitten cautiously stepped back out and crept towards me. She got close to my fingers and sniffed them. Her gaze went up to my eyes and we stared at each other until finally she rubbed her head against my hand. I picked her up and gently carried her to my truck. I looked over at Mike and nodded my head. He waved good-bye and left. I put the cat in the passenger seat of my car and she stayed there until I got home.

Edward was already inside the house and I went inside after him. He heard me come in and rushed to my side relieved I was home.

"Where have you been? I have been worried," Edward said in a scared, but calm voice. I looked into his eyes then turned away. "What's wrong my love?" I walked outside and he started to follow, but I put my hand up to him to stop him. He stood there confused, but listened. I grabbed the kitten from my truck and held her gently in my arms, cradling her. Edward looked bewildered and his eyes started to grow darker.

"Edward! Don't!" I yelled at him, as I knew from his eyes that this kitten looked appetizing to him.

"I'm sorry, but her blood...it's so sweet smelling. I haven't smelled an animal's blood this sweet before. I won't harm her, but please get rid of her. You were already enough of a burden, I can't have another one I need to train. Please Bella I can't hurt her." I looked at him then at the cat and shook my head softly.

"No. Edward she needs my help. Look at the poor thing she's starving. I need to help her," my words silently echoed in the hallway. Edward's gaze dropped from my eyes to the kittens. They stared at each other and the cat hissed. Edward was taken aback and growled. "I named her Petal," I told Edward. His eyes were still locked on to hers.

"I guess we can try, but don't be mad if I can't control myself, or if Jasper and Emmett can't. Rosalie wouldn't hurt her and neither would Alice, but my brothers I can't promise anything." He looked back at me and I smiled then set the cat down. I ran up to him and hugged him glad he was letting us try.

"When should we introduce her to them?"

"I think we should warn them first, get them prepared. I don't know what they would do." I nodded my head in agreement.

R&R No falmes please!!
